A Sri Lankan\u00a0father who used a fake passport to get to Switzerland to meet his daughter, asked Dubai Police for help after being sent back to Sri Lanka through a transit\u00a0in Dubai.\u00a0<\/p>\n
If you consider the consequences of asking for this kind of help elsewhere, it’s not much of a guarantee you’ll be listened to, or better yet, assisted.<\/p>\n
However, how the Dubai Police handled this situation will astonish you.<\/p>\n
The Human Rights Department at Dubai Police contacted the United Nations (UN) refugee agency to sort out travel documents for his travel to Switzerland, had his daughter issue a visit visa for her father, and even paid for his ticket.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
In only twelve days, the man got to see his daughter.\u00a0Colonel Mohammad Al Murr, Director of Human Rights Department at Dubai Police told Gulf News that “their job wasn’t just to arrest and catch criminals but to help society and people.”<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
